Some wealthy Manhattan moms have figured out a way to cut the long lines at Disney World by hiring disabled people to pose as family members so they and their kids can jump to the front, The Post has learned.

... black-market Disney guides run $130 an hour, or $1,040 for an eight-hour day.

My daughter waited one minute to get on Its a Small World the other kids had to wait 2 1/2 hours, crowed one mom, who hired a disabled guide through Dream Tours Florida.

You cant go to Disney without a tour concierge, she sniffed. This is how the 1 percent does Disney.

The woman said she hired a Dream Tours guide to escort her, her husband and their 1-year-old son and 5-year-old daughter through the park in a motorized scooter with a handicapped sign on it. The group was sent straight to an auxiliary entrance at the front of each attraction.

...from Despicable Tour web site: Due to inaccurate press and slander, Dream Tours is not offering VIP tours at this time. Our focus has primarily always been providing magical vacations for adults with special needs and helping their dreams to come true.

You wouldn’t know it according to how he just won’t come home from there. Makes a good living, loves night life, et al... divorced and went there and won’t leave. 38 years old and has a 22 year old GF (latest one).

He’s conservative but doesn’t advertise. Women there at that age and availability there, at least by his assessment are easy - and stupid.

I tell him every time I talk to him to leave that heathen city, but he won’t

As an aside, Disney’s policies here certainly helped my own family during a (bona fide) Make-a-Wish trip last year.

On the other hand, the fact that these 30-90 minute lines for certain attractions is a real problem for them, because you can certainly argue that it limits both the level of value and enjoyment received from their park guests (we never would have gone otherwise). But the place has been open for 40+ years now, so I guess they’ve decided they’re okay with all that. It’s certainly this problem that is making others try to ‘game’ the system.

I don’t see anything wrong with this. “I’m handicapped and I’m being exploited by being paid $1000 a day.” Who’s exploiting who. Besides, the story is just more hate the rich propaganda.
An entrepreneur finds a loophole to make money. True capitalism if I ever saw it.

Just another reason to avoid Dismalland. We have two nice amusement parks in the Pittsburgh area where the wait times are always reasonable-- Kennywood (20-30 minutes) and Idlewild (10-20 minutes).

That's all they should be at a properly managed amusement park. When we lived in the Tokyo area, Sanrio (the Hello Kitty people) ran a park with similar skill-- it was a reservation system. People who showed up without a reservation would be admitted only if the capacity hadn't been filled for the day. It made the visit a lot nicer for everyone.

Disney really doesn't care. They've already got their admission money and figure that people who can't get on rides will still stand in line to buy their overpriced meals and gee-gaws.

I was leaving Orlando in 2003 & tuned in a local talk radio show just as the host in a Cuban accent was practically screaming, “This is Gay Pride week at Disney World so don’t you be takin’ your kids there!! The place is full of maricones I mean queers all this whole week! You don’t want your children seeing anything like that so stay away from Disney World!”

It really was Gay Pride at DW as CNN covered it and the visuals were not for the faint of heart.

Also keep in mind that these are the same people that pay $200 to $300 PER HOUR to tutor their little trophies, while still voting for and supporting the political party that is condemning less-well-off kids to a meager existence.

“An entrepreneur finds a loophole to make money. True capitalism if I ever saw it.”

Capitalism does not always equal moral. Selling your sister to the highest bidder is capitalism but is also wrong. Using someone’s handicap to get yourself special privileges and then bragging about it is a D***hbag move.

(Obama being re-elected is the political equivalent of OJ being found not guilty.)

This is chump change to these people. These are the ultra rich billionaires. These people spend $35k-50k to send their kids to “the right” day care and private elementary school. Their high school kids go to places like Exeter Academy, wear blue blazers and spend more on high school than most people spend on college. They then attend Harvard, Princeton or Yale, but not Dartmouth. They fly on private planes. They have multiple houses. They vacation in Aspen and own islands in the Caribbean. Read the book “The Nanny Diaries”. Many of these people are not new money. They were born rich. They live on the upper east side. They never go over to the upper west side where the new rich live.

It’s hate the rich propaganda. The story exists for that reason alone, and the real kick in the butt is, it pulls on the emotional strings of even conservatives and gets them spread the hate the rich story. It’s a fraud. Horrible people exist at every level of income, but this story fits the agenda.

Leftist press agenda. Find a target in the your favorite “you should hate them because they think they are better than you” group and post an emotional story with a hook and watch as even conservatives propagate the rich bashing.

Most of the wealthy, poor and middle class people I know, simply avoid peak times at tourist attractions! More fun, less stress. Only truly classless ignorant idiots would think that they have “scored a win” by paying an extra thousand dollars to cut lines in a crowded amusement park.

This story merely illustrates the stupidity of obnoxious people who think they can buy special “ cheat passes”.

They always willingly pay extra money to “beat the competition”. What they can’t ever seem to comprehend is that most people just laugh at them, for acting like idiots!
